Chapter 79: You didn't negotiate the pit

After sending Yang Zhi away, Prince Geely thought that he had explained clearly, and the assassination of Wang Da Hammer should no longer have anything to do with him.

But to his surprise, he received a summons from Li Shimin the next day, saying that he was asked to go to the Golden Palace to confront Wang Dazhui on the spot.

"Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, this is clearly bullying us as outsiders!" Prince Geely, who received the summons, was furious and furious.

What's going on? Why did Li Shimin suddenly intervene in this matter?

Speaking of which, it turned out that all this was related to Wang Da Hammer, who was ready to splash dirty water on Prince Geely at the beginning, and the reason why it dragged on for so long was because he had been arranging a bureau. A bureau dedicated to Prince Geely.

……

Prince Geely came to the Golden Palace on time according to Li Shimin's request, and found that in addition to Li Shimin, there were many ministers present, including Wang Dazhu.

"The foreign minister has seen the Tang Emperor!" Prince Jili first greeted Li Shimin according to their etiquette on the grassland.

The etiquette on the grassland is very different from that of us Han people, we generally clasp our fists and bow our hands, or kneel directly.

This is not the case with the prairie people, whose etiquette is to first spread out the hands, then withdraw the left hand, and at the same time put the left hand to the place of the heart, and then bow. Completing the whole action is even their most honorable etiquette.

"Prince Geely is exempt." Li Shimin smiled and said, and then instructed the chamberlain beside him: "Come here, arrange a seat for His Royal Highness Prince Jili." ”

"Prince Geely, please." The chamberlain invited him to a side seat and sat down.

In this way, it looks like a banquet, not like a trial and confrontation.

Regarding Li Shimin's arrangement, Wang Dazhui didn't say much, because when he told Li Shimin, he just asked Li Shimin to summon Prince Geely into the palace.

Just when Prince Geely sat down and was about to take a sip of the wine glass on the table, Wang Dazhui suddenly walked to the center of the hall and knelt down in front of Li Shimin.

I saw Wang Da Hammer start crying with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, Prince Jili sent someone to assassinate me in the street, and please uphold justice for me." ”

"You kid dare to spew blood?" Prince Geely came to the wine in his mouth, and he was stunned by Wang Dazhu's words.

Whispers began in the main hall.

"It turns out that the person who assassinated Wang Xian a few days ago was Prince Geely!"

"That's right, Wang Xiannan happened to have a conflict with Prince Geely before he was assassinated, and it must be Prince Geely's revenge."

"The Turks are so arrogant! This is to deceive me, no one in the Tang Dynasty dared to send someone to assassinate such a child as Wang Xiannan. ”

Hearing these discussions, the cold sweat on Prince Jili's head came out, and he couldn't figure out why he suddenly became a crowd.

"Your Majesty Datang, I dare to use the credibility of our grassland warriors to guarantee this matter, and it will definitely not be done by me." Prince Geely hurriedly got up three steps and made two steps, and came to Li Shimin to explain.

Wang Dazhui wiped his tears and looked at Prince Jili with vicious eyes, "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!" ”

Li Shimin thought to himself, what kind of drama is Wang Dazhui singing? Why are you still playing a bitter trick?

"Wang Xiannan, you said that you were assassinated by Prince Jili's people, is there any evidence?" Li Shimin coughed and asked.

"Your Majesty, all the assassins who assassinated me have confessed, and they were all sent by Prince Jili himself. If Your Majesty doesn't believe you, you can ask someone to bring the Assassin from the Chang'an Mansion and ask him. ”

"Someone, go and bring the assassin who assassinated Wang Xian Man here." Li Shimin had no choice but to summon according to his words.

"Wang Xiannan, you beat this king that day, and this king didn't settle accounts with you, you still dare to slander me?" Seeing Wang Da Hammer say everything as if it were true, the green tendons on Prince Geely's forehead burst out.

"Slandering you?" Wang Dazhui glared at Prince Geely, and then said, "Wait a little later, when the assassin arrives, you will know if I have slandered you."

"Hmph, this prince wants to see if the assassin really proves that this king is the murderer!" If it weren't for the main hall, Prince Geely would have wanted to divide the five horses of Wang Da Hammer immediately.

Without a single cup of tea, the prisoner was brought. There were eight people in total, all of them were quite a few, and they all wore anklet bracelets. He was wearing the prison uniform of the Tang Dynasty.

I saw eight people with decadent faces, walking staggeringly, and it seemed that they had suffered a lot during their time in prison.

"Your Majesty, the prisoners are here."

"Bring them in!" Li Shimin heard this.

Seeing a few prisoners, Li Shimin asked loudly: "But how many of you confessed that you were instructed by Prince Jili to assassinate Wang Xiannan?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people are guilty, and the grass people and others were indeed instructed by Prince Jili to assassinate the man in Wang County." Said the leading prisoner.

When Prince Jili on the side heard this, his face turned white, "Nonsense, when did this king instruct you?" This king does not know you people at all. ”

"Hmph, Your Royal Highness, of course you pretend not to know them now, the matter has been revealed, and you still want to quibble?" Wang Dazhui retorted.

"You say yes? If they want to talk about evidence, who knows if they have framed this king? ”

"They framed you? I see that you don't shed tears when you don't see the coffin. You say you don't know them, but why do they identify you with one voice? ”

"His Royal Highness Prince Jili, when you said that Wang Xian Nan beat you in public, this is your great shame, you must kill Wang Xian Nan to relieve the hatred in your heart, have you forgotten?" A prisoner pointed to Prince Geely.

"This king doesn't know you at all, you are a bloody person."

Prince Geely is not very proficient in Chinese, so it is good to be able to remember that he is spewing blood and framing people.

"Prince Geely, I don't think you can deny it anymore, dare to do it or not, what kind of man is it?" Wang Da Hammer squeezed again.

"There is no basis for what you say, unless you produce evidence." Prince Geely tried his best to keep himself calm and calm.

Because he knew that he had not done it at all, the prisoners had no evidence even if they slandered themselves.

But once again, things were unexpected. The prisoner who identified him actually produced a piece of evidence.

"Your Royal Highness, you should always know the wolf totem on our Turkic dead soldiers, right?" I saw that all the prisoners unbuttoned their clothes, revealing the same pattern as the tattoos on their bodies.

"How is that possible? How can you have a wolf totem on you? ”

Looking at the pattern on the prisoner's body, Prince Jili was shocked and opened his mouth to ask.

"Hmph. Now His Royal Highness has nothing to say! You may not believe their words, but this unique wolf totem is ironclad evidence that you cannot deny. Wang Dazhui took advantage of the situation to chase and fight.
